According to Webster :

Etymology: Middle English bere, from Old English bera; akin to Old English brun brown -- more at BROWN (for the cuddly brown animal)

Etymology: Middle English beren to carry, bring forth, from Old English beran; akin to Old High German beran to carry, Latin ferre, Greek pherein (for supporting or "bearing" something)
